Argument by Monty Python with some scenes cut - Zábava
"Taking a contrary position isn't just saying 'no it isn't'!"
"Yes it is."
"No it isn't!"
That's the highlight for me too. I laugh every time.
@@Analogbrain Ironically brilliant!
T'is. T'isnt.
That's the gold in the skit, that took me multiple watchings, before I had to shake my head, and rattle that nugget out. (It's like the reverse Bugs Bunny). Kind of makes me think, that Looney Tunes might have been, just as intelligent, as these great comedic legends became, (for their respective times).
@@marsmancho They're actually using that old Bugs Bunny skit multiple times and flipping the script just as many times.

“I could be arguing in my spare time” is the best line in this sketch
No it isn't...
Yes it is
@@Joe_J12e No it isn't. The very first line "I'd like to have an argument, please" seals our fate whilst laying the ground for such absurd genius to follow and, before you say "no it isn't", I can most definitely assure you.... it is.
Sebastian T. Dangerfield i get it, its the first words you hear which are great, lets you know what you are getting into although thats the whole point of the title so it pointless also the line i referred to brung humour which (i dont know about you) caught me off guard. It still is the best line
@@Joe_J12e They can BOTH be the best line same as I can love all three of my kids, EQUALLY. When I first saw this, it was on terrestrial TV, back in the 1970's. The show's format was that one sketch ended and another simply began (sometimes two or more ending and starting seamlessly). There was no sign saying "Argument Clinic Sketch". They just did it. Consequently, when Michael Palin says "I'd like to have an argument, please", that alone would have been enough, had the sketch ended right there and then, LOL
